RE: Wildlife Photography: Roebuck / Rehbock

in #photography5 years ago

Howdy sir johannpiber! I think those were good shots, even though you got them from no skill of your own, you just lucked out! lol..no, once he showed up you still have to take good pictures. Maybe you could set up a camera in the wilderness to take photos when activated by motion, maybe you could also get lucky that way.

Sort:  

... or I could just set up my camera on the tripod, focus to a spot, where the deer might jump out of the woods. Then I would lean back and watch Youtube videos. When the deer arrives, I would just press the button on my remote control.

This way sounds better to me than the automatic camera, because then I can say, that I was there, photographing wildlife ;) lol

Although I know, whereabout the deer are or must be, it is always luck when I get such photos, because I am no hunter, who can sit and wait patiently ;)

That DOES sound like a good plan sir johannpiber. What if things in society really get back? and it's like in a movie, like end of the world type of movie, you would know where to hunt deer to get meat.

I don't know if I could live in such a world, because I don't think, I could shoot such a beautiful deer. Look at his eyes - could you kill such eyes?
I even could not kill a snake - have you ever looked into the eyes of a snake, before you shot it to death?
I think, I would become a vegetarian, but these are even worse people, because they eat the all food of the animals.
LOL

Oh man, you got problems! You can't even be a vegetarian! lol. Oh yes, I check the eyes of the snakes if I can see them, the ones with round pupils are not venomous. The dangerous ones have to die because I have to protect Mrs. J. and Jack, plus myself.

The deer would be sad to have to kill but if the choice was between killing a deer and your family starving to death I think the deer would have to be an important sacrifice. The Bible speaks of such times in the end but I don't think we'll see it in our lifetimes.

You really check the eyes, or are you joking? I have just googled it, and you are not joking :) But I have read, that that's not the case for all snakes - some venomous snakes have also round pupils, but I have searched for a few minutes only, and I think you know the snakes which are around where you live ;)

Of course you are right, if it was really necessary I would be able to kill the deer, but I would be sad.

I would be sad too sir johannpiber! Yes the thing about the eyes is one indicator but very seldom would we NOT know what a venomous snake looks like around here. We basicall just have three in this area...rattlesnake, water moccosin, and copperhead. I simplify things by just killing them all. Because they are territorial and you can't just tell them to leave. They'll stay in the area.

I know, that you know what you are doing, you know?
All three snake names sound very dangerous to me. These snakes are in the reptile zoos behind thick glass.

Yes, that's where they belong! They probably have a nice life there, they don't have to worry about starving.
Are you already off work?
